It sure looks like there's a train headlight just around the bend...  Neat shot, Jim.  Lovely details in the foreground and a fine sense of depth and mystery around the bend.

I've never seen this before.  Zion?  Very appropriate and a neat image.

Wow, David!  I can't believe that there was still one person in the world, especially a nature photographer in the U.S.A., who hasn't at least seen numerous photographs of The Subway before.

Yes, The Subway is in the Zion backcountry.  It's a fairly strenuous hike of about nine miles total there and back.

Wonderful formation, Jim.  I like the light and the foreground pools add a lot.
